Colombia La Riviera SL28

La Riviera sits at 1,750 meters in Risaralda's Santa Rosa de Cabal, where producers Julio Madrid and Julio Quiceno have spent over a decade perfecting their approach to sustainable cultivation. The washed process is paired with cutting-edge fermentation techniques that add remarkable complexity and balance to the cup. SL28 variety typically delivers vibrant acidity and layered fruit expression—here amplified by La Riviera's ecological farming practices and meticulous post-harvest handling. This is a coffee that rewards the roaster's attention and drinker's curiosity.
